Jo Henderson Canterbury Christ Church University North Holmes Road Kent CT1 1QU United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract: The road to technological progress is littered with unsuccessful prototypes and their inventors. In British television there is perhaps no better example than John Logie Baird, universally recognised as the successful inventor of the technology, but not of the successful business model. Another, lesser known, casualty is the Vision Electronic Recording Apparatus (VERA), developed within the BBC Design Unit between 1952 and 1958. VERA had the potential to change the production and working practices of British television, in ways yet to be imagined or apparent, but just as it reached completion it was superceded by an American import.

  • Ethical Perspectives on Reality Television: Parenting Docu-Soaps, Makeover Shows, and Parodies of Reality Dating Programs
    Ethical Perspectives on Reality Television: Parenting Docu-Soaps, Makeover Shows, and Parodies of Reality Dating Programs Benjamin John Healey BA (Honours), University of Queensland A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2017 School of Communication and Arts Healey 2 Abstract This thesis argues that certain characteristics of reality television subgenres are likely to consistently produce ethical problems in programs belonging to those subgenres. Through the ethical analysis of cases studies from three subgenres of reality television, I also demonstrate the relative value of various normative ethical frameworks in analysing ethical problems in reality programming. I also argue that popular, non-academic criticisms of reality television act as implicit ethical judgements that align with formal criticisms from normative ethics. My first chapter addresses the ethical problems of informed consent, agency and representation in Extreme Guide to Parenting (Bravo 2014) and Toddlers & Tiaras (TLC 2008–13), two docu-soap programs that feature children. I find that a Kantian deontological perspective largely disapproves of children’s involvement in reality television, and these objections are echoed by similar arguments from documentary ethics. A perspective from the utilitarian arguments of Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, conversely, may in some cases approve or disapprove of children’s participation in docu- soaps, depending on whether the production of these programs is seen to generally contribute to wider happiness. A utilitarian evaluation of the ethical goods and harms of docu-soaps production and reception has parallels with debates in documentary ethics over the function of documentary as a general public good.

  • 6. Using Cryptimage at Startup You Will See the Main Interface : Cryptimage Interface, the Look and Feel Will Be Different Depending Your Operating System
    Cryptimage user guide 1. Introduction Cryptimage is an open source software under the license GNU GPL v3 which purpose is to reproduce old analog TV encryption systems like « discret 11 » (used between 1984 and 1995 by french TV network « canal plus ») , « nagravision syster » (used between 1995 and 2010), and « videocrypt » used by Sky TV and by several other broadcasters on astra satellites. This software allows to encrypt a video file (image and sound) , and allows also a decryption of an encrypted file, by meeting the standard of discret11, nagravision syster and videocrypt. Besides the ability to reproduce in a digital way these three encryption systems, its second use is to allow the re-use of hardware descramblers by injecting to them an encrypted video file produced by cryptimage. 2. Definition of discret 11 The discret11 process is to encrypt the image by delaying each line by three values to choose from (0, 902 and 1804 milliseconds), delays are selected through an algorithm based on a pseudo-random sequence, the sound is rendered unintelligible by subjecting it to a spectrum inversion around the frequency 12800 Hz. Discret11 encryption example, on a philips PM5544 tv card. 3. Definition of nagravision syster Nagravision syster (SYStème TERrestre) scrambles the image by permuting lines, a TV frame has 2 interlaced fields, each field has 288 lines and these lines are permuted (except line 288 which is not permuted), then the first 32 lines of each encrypted field are shifted to the previous encrypted field, which give this pattern

Theodore Markettos December 2011 15 JJ Thomson Avenue Cambridge CB3 0FD United Kingdom phone +44 1223 763500 http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/ c 2011 A. Theodore Markettos This technical report is based on a dissertation submitted March 2010 by the author for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the University of Cambridge, Clare Hall. Technical reports published by the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory are freely available via the Internet: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/techreports/ ISSN 1476-2986 Active electromagnetic attacks on secure hardware A. Theodore Markettos Summary The field of side-channel attacks on cryptographic hardware has been extensively studied. In many cases it is easier to derive the secret key from these attacks than to break the cryptography itself. One such side- channel attack is the electromagnetic side-channel attack, giving rise to electromagnetic analysis (EMA). EMA, when otherwise known as ‘TEMPEST’ or ‘compromising eman- ations’, has a long history in the military context over almost the whole of the twentieth century. The US military also mention three related at- tacks, believed to be: HIJACK (modulation of secret data onto conducted signals), NONSTOP (modulation of secret data onto radiated signals) and TEAPOT (intentional malicious emissions). In this thesis I perform a fusion of TEAPOT and HIJACK/NONSTOP techniques on secure integrated circuits. An attacker is able to introduce one or more frequencies into a cryptographic system with the intention of forcing it to misbehave or to radiate secrets.

In 1960, the Queen had officially given her consent for Sir Winston Churchill to have a State Funeral, and the BBC and the Independent Television Authority were officially informed that detailed plans for the great event were about to be made available to the broadcasters. It had been decided that regardless of the day of the week of Churchill’s death, the funeral would take place on a Saturday. Rediffusion was the London weekday contractor, with ATV taking over at weekends, but the ITA instructed Rediffusion to handle this complicated outside broadcast. My boss, John McMillan, the Controller of Programmes, had asked me to take charge of this project as producer and controlling director on behalf of the whole ITV network.
